6,009,458.39reported acres

The snapshot contains records in 237 Texas counties or county-equivalent areas. Tyler has the largest sum of reported acreage among those areas. Open a county below to examine its country/source breakdown and record counts.
Reported interests include different forms of ownership and other reportable interests. Acreage is not necessarily outright foreign ownership or land removed from farming. A country/source code does not establish foreign-government control. County figures are geographic summaries, not parcel boundaries or current ownership verification.
